Yvette provided online maths tutoring for my daughter for 2 months just before she sat her GCSE exams in June 2023. She was very patient and concentrated on topic areas my daughter struggled with. I am pleased to confirm that my daughter passed her Maths GCSE with a grade she was very happy with. Thank you Yvette for your help.

Maths super tutor has advanced my sons knowledge and increased his confidence considerably during his tutoring. He really enjoys the virtual sessions and always comes away feeling positive and happy, which is a complete reversal to where he was regarding maths at the start of his tutoring. He feels really confident about his upcoming GCSE exams, which is great. I am now booking lessons with my younger son as he wants to progress his maths knowledge for GCSEs as he starts his year 10.

Yvette can explain the subject very well and has patience for things my daughter does not understand.

Highly recommended. Eldest was struggling with Maths, and we were pointed toward Maths Super Tutor by a friend. Our daughter has received tutoring for ~ 3 months now, has already gone up a set at school and, most importantly, is showing greater confidence in her lessons and homework. It's made a noticeable difference in a short period of time, and we intend to maintain her tutoring as she approaches her GCSE.

Extra tuition helped our daughter to improve her maths, after Covid and some inadequate parent teaching, so much so that she was confident for her SATS and able to pass the admission paper for a highly academic independent school. Very happy with our outcomes. Thank you!

Yvette has been supporting my daughter (Y9) with her maths homework for the past few months and it is really helping her. She is more confident in her knowledge and she looks forward to having her weekly lessons.

Our daughter received GCSE maths tuition from Yvette over a two-year period. Yvette turned her from a maths-fearing underperformer into an A-grade student who achieved a seven score at the end of the course at her local comprehensive school. Yvette is patient and encouraging and instils that most precious of qualities: confidence. We would not hesitate to recommend her.

Yvette began tutoring our daughter with a little more than a year to go until GCSEs. Maths had always been our daughter’s kryptonite; to make matters worse she fell very ill at the start of year 11and ended up missing many weeks of school as a result. At some point we were unsure whether she could sit GCSEs at all that year. Thanks to Yvette’s patience and tutoring style our daughter’s confidence and ability in the subject grew considerably. In the end she went into her exams well prepared and without the fear of the subject that had so crippled her previously, and as a result she received the good grade she had been aiming for. Perhaps more importantly, during that one year our daughter had learnt to almost enjoy maths. We are very grateful to Yvette and only wish we’d found her earlier – it probably would have saved us all a lot of anxiety!

We emigrated back to the uk from Belgium with our daughter speaking broken English and supposedly suffering from number blindness (dyscalculia). My daughter had spent years being the bottom of the class in maths and now we were throwing her into a completely new system in a different language. We had less than 18 months to help her achieve a pass at maths gcse. (4) We found Yvette online and soon had appointments reserved. My daughter grew in confidence and after a few months pronounced ' the penny's dropped - I love maths! Could I take it for A level?' Yvette pushed my daughter without making her feel inadequate. She really looked forward to her maths lessons. Yvette would give extra lessons leading up to exams if possible and kept me informed by text. My daughter started to achieve Bs and even As in her maths tests, and at one point her teacher recommended Maths for A-level. Due to the new system none of these grades counted unfortunately. She was sick on the day of her maths GCSE but managed to achieve a 5/C, which we are over the moon about! My younger son will take my daughters place this September. He does not suffer from any learning difficulties, but again all his life math was taught in a different way and he's a touch behind average. Maths is such an important subject we don't want to compromise. We feel confident with Yvette. I can highly recommend Yvette.

My son has had maths tuition from Yvette for just over a year and is booked in to continue for the next year. He finds Yvette kind and patient and very easy to understand. His confidence with Maths has increased greatly and his predicted grade at GCSE has increased 2 levels also. Yvette has been very reliable but also flexible ( for example leaving it up to us as to whether we have lessons in the holidays or not) Three of my son's friends have also started with Yvette after hearing how pleased we are with our son's progress and I would thoroughly recommend Yvette as your child's tutor.

Yvette Coulthard tutored my son in Mathematics for the final year of Year 11 leading up to his GCSE examinations. Yvette was fantastic with him. She always gave him a warm welcome into her home. She was attentive and patient during every session, and she even managed to make Maths relatively enjoyable for him, despite it not being his favourite subject. Ultimately, Yvette can be judged by the grade that my son achieved for GCSE Maths. When he started with Yvette, his school expected him to achieve a grade 4 or 5. He eventually managed to achieve a grade 6, which was above both the schools and my son's expectations. The above achievement was mirrored by a friend of my son's, who also was tutored by Yvette. She also achieved a grade 6, after originally expecting a lower grade. Yvette is a friendly tutor, who achieves her goals with her students. I would fully recommend her to anyones child who is studying for GCSE Maths.

Yvette has got me back in touch with mental maths techniques, that I had seriously lost through being reliant on calculators. I need to pass a difficult mental maths test as part of a job selection. Yvette has given me the confidence to get through the test, and the skills to take with me in my career. Yvette has also being very accommodating with planning lessons around my shift patterns that I work. Many Thanks Yvette!

Yvette was very understanding and provided excellent tuition under exceptional circumstances. She was very flexible and gave a lot of positive encouragement - resulting in a maths GCSE when it seemed out of reach. Many many thanks.

My daughter has just started with Yvette and it has already made a difference. She has gained more confidence and really enjoys the sessions and is making better progress at school.
Frances, UK
Very helpful and lovely lady to study with. Yvette has given me the confidence that I felt that I lost or never had for years. She has different teaching techniques which are used if you don't understand school or college techniques.

Yvette has been really great at reinforcing the basics (Yr 8) while opening up new areas of maths to widen our son's appreciation of the subject. Thank you Yvette!

Just talking to her and corresponding makes us feel that she will do her very best to help our son. That is more than enough for us.
O.F., UK
Since starting with Yvette in September my sons confidence has really grown and he enjoys his tutor sessions… He finds it very helpful to go over and practice the maths he is doing at school and can reinforce any areas which he has struggled with at school. My son finds Yvette very patient and explains things very well. Many thanks!

When retaking my maths GCSE I struggled to work in a college setting, Yvette made it much easier to focus on my goal as she made me feel comfortable she was extremely helpful in building my confidence back up with maths.

Yvette has been great with our daughter - it is still early days, but she has been great in both teaching in a patient manner but also brilliant in building her confidence, which is essential.

Yvette has done a fantastic job with my son. His grades were getting worse and worse and since he has been going to Yvette his grades have really improved. Also she is very patient with him and he likes her.

Working with Yvette has been a really positive experience for my son, which has particularly valuable during lockdown. She is really well set up for online tuition and classes have been collaborative and well structured. My son's confidence and capability in maths have increased as a consequence of his time spent with Yvette. I would highly recommend her.
